Do we yet live by the gospel in a nutshell?

Do we yet live by the gospel in a nutshell? Do we love the world this much? If this is the summary, then we are called to love this broadly, inclusively, and destabilizingly.

We cannot limit our love nor our beneficial action to people who look like us or think like us, or even only to people. As well, the degree of our love is called to go beyond ordinary limits, sacrificing dear ones.

:- Doug.
